Do you have a drive in theater in your area? My husband and I took our 2 year old and 5 month old recently and it was great. Our 2 year old was crazy and loud, but the chaos was well contained in our car and we didn't have to worry about bothering anyone else.

At a $1 movie, yes. Anyone who goes into a child's movie at $1 a ticket during the summer should be expecting small children in the theater. Now a late night showing, adult movie at full price, yeah rude.

Mine have always gone. I took them as babies on up. 12-18 months were the most difficult, but we got through it and they learned. I'm always armed with plenty of treats.....popcorn, m&m's, fruit snacks, suckers, and juice boxes or lemonade. DS is 2 1/2 and is good now. He knows that if he isn't quiet then we have to walk out.

Not before they can sit still and quietly. I for one find it rude and disrespectful to take them before they can do both of those things. I paid to watch a movie not to listen to some little child.

I've noticed adults are worse than kids. They are on their phones with the light lighting up at least 3 rows, they talk during it, they cough and hack, there have even been a few times recently where a lady had to explain everything to the person next to her.

If you don't take kids, then how will they learn how to act? If you don't want to pay to hear kids then don't go to a kids movie.

I agree with this. My original question was about the kids movies for a Buck. I would never take a toddler to a full price movie, that is asking for trouble. I also would be mortified if my DD acted up in a full Price movie.

For a kids movie you'll probably be fine. I once took 3 y.o. DD to see a decidedly adult movie at an art house theater and someone complained because she's rattled the wrapper of her snack, she didn't talk or move just crinkled a little. we had to leave. Thats why I have seen very few adult movies in the pay few years.
My most disruptive movie going experience was when I went to see the Decedents. There was a clearly hard of hearing possibly Alzheimer's lady there basically screaming asking stupid questions f the an she was with. He never once told her to quiet down even though everyone ET turning around and gaming daggers them. Since I only get to see a movie 1-2 a year wen someone agrees to babysit I was very angry. I guess ow that I'm having twinsI'm will never again see adult movie in the theater.

For kids movies or $1 movies sure but i cant stand when parents take their babies and toddlers to older kid or adult movies in the evening. Especially if they are crying or talking loud through the movie.

Yeah see I am in the same boat, I have not had a movie night as an adult since my YDD came 16m ago. We have an 11y so I getting used to being an adult. I know when ODD was young they didn't have these movie things.

BTW, you having to leave over a crinkle of a wrapper was bull. I'm sorry people can be so rude. Its like they forget they were a child to and that they may have acted the same way. Anyways. Congrats on twins.
